Radeon RX 7900 XTX is 327.2 % stronger than RTX 3070 Laptop GPU. Radeon RX 7900 XTX ranks #2 of 67 measured graphics cards at WhatFPS (18,924 GPU score over 2 verified runs). RTX 3070 Laptop GPU ranks #34 of 67 measured graphics cards at WhatFPS (4,430 GPU score over 5 verified runs). The numbers are measured in 7 verified WhatFPS runs — not estimated, not self-reported.

Measured comparison

Fragz' verdict

The Radeon RX 7900 XTX unequivocally outperforms the RTX 3070 Laptop GPU, leading by a massive 298.5% in GPU score, though we must note its sample size is thin with only two verified runs. This translates to a huge difference in game performance, with the XTX hitting 101.6 FPS in Mission to Earth II DX12 and 79.8 FPS in Earth II Vulkan, while the Laptop GPU manages 24.1 FPS and 18.5 FPS respectively. The XTX's dominant raw compute power is evident in its ALU index of 803269 compared to the Laptop GPU's 202083, complemented by a substantial 24 GB of VRAM versus 8 GB. Despite the RTX 3070 Laptop GPU's higher memory bandwidth of 153 GB/s, its overall performance places it at rank 24, making it suitable only for gamers needing a portable solution where the desktop-class XTX isn't an option.

What the numbers mean

The GPU score is the graphics card's own performance — that is what we rank on. GAMING is the whole rig's score in the best PC we measured the card in, and depends on processor, memory and storage. We show both and never mix them.

All numbers come from our benchmark suite: four hand-built 3D scenes written directly against the graphics APIs in Rust, the same load on every PC. The methodology is open at https://whatfps.com/metodik
